Character history

Blast-Attak was introduced into the Masters of the Universe toy line in 1987. Masters of the Universe (commonly abbreviated to MOTU) is a Media franchise created by Mattel. His action figure, which was made of two separate halves which could be 'blasted apart' via a cord snapped into his back, came packaged with the mini-comic "Revenge of the Snake Men" in which he is presented as a creation of King Hiss, and a minion of the Snake Men. King Hiss is a Fictional character in the Masters of the Universe franchise The Snake Men are a fictional race of evil Humanoid Snakes in Mattel's Masters of the Universe franchise This allegiance seems unusual, because Blast-Attak was packaged as one of Skeletor's minions and is not in any way snake-like. Skeletor ( IPA: US /'skel?t??r/ is a Fictional character in the Masters of the Universe franchise the arch-enemy and main As his role in this comic is so minor as to be insignificant, it seems as though he was incorporated into this particular comic purely for the sake of convenience and to avoid having to produce a separate comic to showcase him. He appears in the US Marvel Comics as a minion of Skeletor, with a different background, having been summoned from another dimension. Marvel Comics is an American comic book company owned by Marvel Publishing Inc In this incarnation, his most prominent characteristic is his reluctance to take orders and submit to authority; as Skeletor summons him and Ninjor, he addresses them as his slaves, upon which Blast-Attak furiously snaps back "Your what!? Blast-Attak is no one's slave!"

Due to Blast-Attak's later introduction into the toy line, he never makes any animated appearances and his exposure across all other media is minimal, thus he is one of the least well-known MOTU characters. Ninjor is a fictional villain from the Masters of the Universe franchise

Blast-Attak does not appear in the updated 2002 toy-line or cartoon series. Although this is probably because none of the characters from so late in the original line are featured in the updated version, many have speculated that Blast-Attak would have been unlikely to appear anyway - at least without heavy modification - as a children's toy who blows himself up to injure and destroy his enemies would be unsuitable in our modern society, where suicide bombers are a sad reality.
